2023 Haskell Handicapping Challenge
If you’re one of the few Albertans left with any interest in Alberta thoroughbred racing watch Sunday’s Woodbine Oaks. Not for the Stu Simon trained McClellan horse as they don’t bother to race in Alberta anymore, but Peter M Brant’s filly, Big Brass Bed. One of her siblings will be coming to a sale close to you pretty soon as Esquirol Farms has acquired the mare, Precision Farming, who is in foal to Medaglio D’Oro’s son Higher Power.
Not a bad nick.

I wait until I see that tomato that whispers, it’s sandwich time,” Burt says.
Garden and Gun – Rice – Tomato Sandwich Rules and Regulations
Phil has a question:
What ever happened to the tout at DRF who used the phrase: “Works whisper ready.”
Central to all this is good timing. A homegrown, vine-ripe tomato is ready when it’s ready. That restless buildup for the perfect tomato to slacken and blush, to actually smell of fire and rain? Some people wait all year for it. Your tomato need not be plucked from the Garden of Eden to be good: Just try to find one that came from a farmer during its high season and not a big-box supermarket in winter. Though cherry, Campari and other small greenhouse tomatoes can be lovely, what you really want is a big, peak-season beefsteak or heirloom that still has the warmth of the sun as you slice into it.

How much tax revenue is Alberta sending to the off shore bookies with the (Sorry Walt) Mickey Mouse gaming sites that AGLC offers bored Albertans.
When are the socialist UCPs in Alberta going to liberalize the gaming and cannabis businesses and turn them over to private enterprise instead of running them like Big Brother.
